New York, Aug. 1.-THE firm of Hen
ny 5: Ives & Co. has just notified the
Stock Exchange of it's suspension. There
was intense excitement on the board as
soon as the announcement was received.
Mr.. Cromwell, of Sullivan & Cromwell,
has been made assignee. The liabilities
are estimated at $4,000 900, with assets
slightly in excess of that amount. The
announcement was made just before the
close of the Stock Exchange and caused

GENERAL MASTER WORKMAN Pow
DHRLY means well enough, but unfortu-
nately he is unable to carry his schemes
to success. He is forever devising plans
for the benefit of the Knights of Labor.
and is never putting these plans into
effect. His latest proposition is to
amend the constitution of the order
so as to exclude ''rumsellers" from
membership, and put stop to all ex-
cursions, picnics and pleasure parties
of Knights, on which liquors are taken.
Now, if Mr.. Powderly could do this, he
would be worth to the Knights ten times
the 5000 year which the order paws
him, but that he should attempt to do
it, proves him TO be a visionary, i'm
practicable fellow, little understanding
human nature, and deplorably ignorant
OF the men comprising the order over
which he presides. Liquor is the bsne
OF the workingman, almost as much a
bane as the walking delegate" or As
sembly boss. If PowderIy could keep
liquor and the lsboring man apart, he
would save to the latter much money
and give him power which he does not
now WELD.

THE REGISTRATION is moving along
apace. Unless there shall be some
brisk WORK, however, to-day and to-
morrow, the city lists will not aggre-
gate 5000 names. The appeals and
pleadings of the Loyal League leaders
and tneir newspaper organ to the
Leaguers to register, are having very
little effect. The organization seems to be
made up largely of men who are IN
willing to swear that they will not do
certain things which they do not pro-
pose to discontinue. The present indi-
cation is that the Liberal registration
will fall off in proportion more than the
Peoples, Notwithstanding the disfran-
chisement of women. The registration
will close tomorrow night, after which
it will not be reopened before the
August election. Those who want to
vote should find the registrar, and have
their names enrolled at once.

A WILD PREDICTION.
saltLaks City, Utah

Chauncey N. Depew, of New York, j!
a clever politician, and he should, there
fore, avoid making predictions like the
one he sent forth the other day. He
said that in the Presidential contest OF
1883 the absorbing issue will be the
tariff, and that in 1892 prohi bition will
be the issue. 1t requires no high degree
of political foresight to see that the
chief issue next year will be the tariff.
There is little else of importance for the
parties to fight over, as both are
on practically the same platform as to
other matters of national character.
But how the prohibition movement can
be built up in four years to the dimen
sions necessary to decide a Presidential
election only the most imaginary
can understand. If the Prohibition1sts
shall ever become great party, and go
into Presidential campaign with the
idea of winning it will be when they has
absorbed one or the other of the two
great national parties. Which of these
will it capture? The Republicans are
not prohibitionIsts, and their inclina-
tons are not in the direction of cold
water. Their position on the liquor
question is that of high license, or
at most local option. There is no
body so verdent as to believe that
the Democrats will ever advocate
prohibition. This great party of the
people is not made up of men who be-
Iieye prohibition is possible. or who
would like to have prohibition if it were
possible. Undoubtedly prohibition is |
growing question: the party is gaining
strength and acquiring influence as the
years go by, but that the prohibitionists
will be in the majority in 1892, that they
will be able to elect the President is one
of the ridiculous suggestions. The reform
may come in time and be thorough,
but it will require long years of earnest,
patient work before the Prohibitionists
will be so numerous as to excite appre-
hension on the part of the two great
political organizations which have con-
troll in the land.

BRAIN CRAMMING,

In the current issue of Popular Science
DR.. William A. Hammond considers the
subject of brain-forcing in childhood,
and sets ont some facts which
parents and teachers should know.
There is more injury done
to children by forcing and
wesrying their brains, than by their
neglect educstionsily. DR.. Hammond
says the brain Of child is larger in
proportion to its body than is that of
an adult, and that the head Of bow or
girl does not grow in size after the sew
enth yesr, hat that is worn at lit
ting st 80. In the meantime the rest of
the body has doubled in size. Not only
is the brain larger, but it is more excit-
able and impressionable in the child
than IN the adult. st the same time
the structure is immature. What it
possesses in size it lacks in organization:
consequently it is not at its maximum
for severe and long continued exertion.
and when subjected to strain of this
kind it is certain to suffer. We have all
OF Us seen children become mentally
fstigued from very slight causes, even
when they havt been greatly interested.
How much more, therefore, must their
brains be tired when they have been
forced TO concentrate their attention
upon subjects the Importance CT which
they do not understand!
The doctor says the child should be
taught - acquire knowledge by the use
Of his senses. and there are facts enough
around Jim 10 keep his mind engaged

POWELL CLAYTON, of Arkansas, has
an unsavory reputation, but he lis never
theless cunning politician and is as a
good prophet as can be found in the
Republican ranks. Clayton has been
talking about the national contest next
year, and some things he says are
worth repeating. Here is one of them:
Cleveland will be renominated to
certainty. Governor Hill will not stand
a show if he comes out, and Carlisle and
Thurman will fare no better. On our
side, John Sherman seems to be the
most active, but there is a great deal of
on the Republican side"

BILLY CHANDLER FOR SENATOR.

There is en- interesting Senatorial,
fight going on in Rhode Island, and
much noise is made By it as would De
made if Little Rhody were full grown
State. The scramble is for the seat in
the United States Senate made vacant
by the death of Austin L. Pike. While
the State has a Democratic Governor
the Legislature is hopeiessly Republi-
can, hence a member OF that party will
be chosen. There are half dozen can
didates and some of them are men OF
acknowledged ability and probity, but
strange as it may seem that cunning
demagogue and clever politician. W
E. Chandler, is ahead in the race, with
the odds largely in favor of his ultimate
success. Chandler was Arthur's Secre-
tary of the Navy, and was per-
haps the least competent man
who ever occupied the place;
but he is the shrewdest po-
litical worker in Rhode Island, and
in all probability will induce a majority
of the Legislature to believe ne is
statesman and will be q credit and
honor to the State while representing it
in the United States Senate. AS Pixies
term will expire with the Fiftieth Con
gress, and the Legislature will not meet
again until after the commencement of
thn OnU tnrn II IL iiEaIv tho nroacnt
Legislature will not only fill the vacancy,
but will also elect to the full term

as much as proper. If he does not be-
gin to look at books until he is 10 yesrs
old he will, by the time year has
elapsed, read better than the child OF
the same age that began to learn his
letters at or years. Cramming is one
of the evils of the age. the ambition OF
the parents being to exhibit bright
and learned children. Many splendid
and impressionable brain has been
dulled and destroyed by the forcing
process which is adopted in too many
schools and by too many fathers and
mothers.
